Not disputing that all Ronaldo Fifa must have known summertime daytime working hours law in Qatar, work finish 11-30am resume15-30pm. Even following that you can end up in a hospital with dehydration and worse case heat stroke. Air con stadium no problem for players.Big problem outside for supporters especially on the piss

"Platini has acknowledged he changed his intended vote for the 2022 World Cup host from the US to Qatar following a lunch at the Élysée Palace with the president of France, Nicolas Sarkozy, and the current Emir of Qatar, Tamim al-Thani. Platini has indicated it was clear Sarkozy, whose government was seeking extensive trade deals with Qatar, wanted him to vote for the Gulf state but has always insisted he did not do so because of that pressure."

Wouldn’t surprise me if Platini was a big factor and big reason we failed to get the 2018 and 22 finals, he seems to have a dislike of anything English and I doubt he would have been lobbying very hard for us to get it rather than Russia or Qatar, not to mention the brown paper bags he may have been receiving (or handing out!), thank fuck he’s been booted out.

Both should be told to sling their respective hook..but way of the world .run by slippery cunts. through a combination of laziness. ..self obession and just being thick as shit...you allow it to happen.

Sydney. As you rightly say 2018 is rightly under scrutiny. Also, FIFA admitted in 2016 that certain members had been receiving bribes for a number of years including South Africa for 2010 and candidate Morocco in 1998. Now you could argue there was not so much media coverage prior to the event but that could just be down to the rise in media/social media and internet in recent years but it was being looked at, at the time.

Columbia lost it because the infrastructure wouldn't be ready in time, Russia perhaps? which others..........

Qatar on the other hand, amongst other things promised as part of there bid to have air conditioned stadiums, then after they win the bid say they cant deliver on that promise, FIFA seemed to go all out to not even consider moving the finals elsewhere, in fact they moved the tournament instead!

Kronic? Are you really finding it that hard to understand my point? Shall I try again? I was discussing with Sydney that I disagree with his statement that there has been no Irregularities or corruption at any other World Cup apart from the forthcoming tournament in Qatar. If you think this is stating the obvious, then I agree, however that was the discussion.

You tried to jump in and prove me wrong. However, you picked up on something that was never mentioned or disputed.
